Exploring #HealthLiteracy on LinkedIn: a first look at health hashtag engagement in a professional social media context

This study examined how the hashtag #HealthLiteracy is used on LinkedIn, finding that discussions are primarily centered around professional aged care and institutional settings. Engagement was predominantly passive, with reactions (likes) far outnumbering comments and reposts, which may reflect the platform's professional culture. The study was limited to a one-week sample and faced data access constraints due to LinkedIn's API limitations.

Scientists who downplayed the human role in climate change reported more media coverage.
